Intimate

I dunno - is this good enough to upload to my DeviantART??

This was a beautiful thing I saw whilst on holiday in Filey in July 2010! I literally turned around and looked down and on a tiny sprig of a bush, there were these two.. I bent close got out my macro mode and snapped furiously away! This was the best of the bunch. I dont know specifically what these are - they were each about an inch and a half long stretched out I would estimate? Any ideas?

Portrait Commission WIP 5

Gosh this is turning out deliciously ^_^ I love drawing such beautiful people haha! Enjoy WIP no. 5!

Field of Lilies Redo WIP 8

I haven't had a chance to work on this since July but here is a WIP I never got around to sharing. Please enjoy :)

I miss this painting, I hope I can resume it soon...!

Portrait Commission WIP 4

Work in progress of a portrait commission. Its really starting to come together here :) I have done more of the hair and also added all the depth into the face. It really "pops" now :)

Portrait Commission WIP 3

Just a quick WIP update of a piece I have been continuing to work on this week. Enjoy!

Sunrise on August 11th

I didnt sleep much last week and caught a beautiful sunrise on the morning of August 11th. This is 4:54 am and the sun is just beginning to peep over the horizon. The sky was so beautiful and clear it was lovely to see. Just thought I would share this as its not very professional or anything, but still very pretty :-)

Little Piece of Heaven

Something I drew for my mum - a really big bookmark. Drawin in copic markers and lined with a brush tip copic multiliner. It took a few hours. I really hope she likes it~

I sought but did not find..

See the little person with their lantern? That is me. I am looking for something very precious to me and I cannot find it. I wish that by wishing I could wish it here. Night hinders me. In the vast darkness I am blind. Where under the great big sky are you? :(

Tribal Tattoo Concept 4 / Final

So you havent seen anything of this since April, because I haven't done anything on this since April! Let me explain :)

This is a tribal inspired tattoo design for my bf's birthday - the reason I've suddenly gotten off my ass and reproduced the entire thing in pretty much 24 hours (I'm actually pretty impressed with myself to be honest) is because my boyfriend has decided that he wants this for his birthday which is next month - i.e. my present to him will be to draw it and to get it put on him. So.. here's pretty much the final concept. He's really happy with it which makes me feel pretty chuffed! :D I of course had to consult with him a lot on this as he's pretty picky. But from start to finish this particular concept was described as no less than "amazing", or "perfect". Sweet. :D

Perhaps there will be tweaks, especially since I'm not quite sure if it will map perfectly around the body like I've shown (I am estimating afterall as he wouldnt let me draw it physically ON him unfortunately!). But for now, welcome to the final concept. This is the biggest tattoo design I've ever done. I'm really proud of it!

Portrait Commission WIP 1 & WIP 2

Sorry for the lack of updates in the past few weeks! Life has kind of swept me off my feet and I havent really had time to draw! I do have a further WIP to upload for the Field of Lilies piece but until I get around to that, please enjoy some early works in progress of a portrait commission I'm working on :)

Below, is also the reference photo I'm using for comparison. I still have a long way to go but the foundations I have so far are going well I feel :-)

On a further note, its so HARD to try and get a decent photograph.. either the lighting in England, or my camera, is terrible lol. I had to edit the heck out of these to try and get the contrast right and its still nowhere near... technology fail!
